'Ask about what were here for today,' the governor's wife said.

Stepping up to podium in a sleek pink suit, Jennifer said, "We just find it incredulous that we have Planned Parenthood here, and women are 51 percent of the population... and the majority of the questions, all of these questions, have really been about other issues."

"It's just baffling," she continued. "We have this incredible women's caucus and all these allies, and you're not asking about it. And this happens over and over and over and over again. You wonder why we have such a horrific war on women in this country and that these guys are getting away with it. Because you don't seem to care."

"So, I just offer that, with love," she concluded with an awkward laugh, adding, "Ask about what were here for today."

Gavin Newsom said his wife would be an 'extraordinary' first lady.

The actress, documentary filmmaker and advocate's remarks came on the same day she was featured in a glamorous Marie Claire profile.

In the piece, Gavin, 58, declared that Jennifer would make an "extraordinary" first lady as he continues to hint at a 2028 presidential bid.

"I think she’d be extraordinary in that role, even if she married someone else and they ran for that office. So forget me is all I’m saying," the politician quipped.

Gavin also described his wife and the mother of his four children as "formidable," declaring, "Look, she doesn't suffer fools. She’s not a fly on the wall. She is not passive."

Jennifer Siebel Newsom called Donald Trump a liar .

Elsewhere in the interview, Jennifer took shots at President Donald Trump, who's arguably become her husband's sworn enemy.

"Trump screwed us in California. Trump got super personal and lied and lied and lied and lied and lied," she told the magazine's deputy editor Noor Ibrahim, who noted that Jennifer actually repeated "the word 'lied' eight times in one breath."

The POTUS notably announced a fraud investigation would be launched in California last month, leading Gavin to call him a "deranged, habitual liar whose relationship with reality ended years ago."

Donald Trump recently said he's shocked the California governor is eyeing a 2028 presidential bid.

Donald, 79, also recently labeled the governor "incompetent," and said he was "amazed" to discover Gavin's plans to run for the Oval Office.

"I used to get along with him, but now it’s sort of a hopeless situation," he told reporters on January 23.

The commander-in-chief went on to claim that "people love the dream of California, but they hate what’s happening to them," arguing that the Golden State doesn't have "proper leadership" with Gavin at the helm.
